When he returned from the world river, surprisingly, the beast crystals and lion tiger beasts that Zong Shou and the others had on him didn’t need to be handed up.

Zong Shou found it surprising. That final grade 9 beast seemed to be afraid of something, retreating by itself.

Was it some elder from within the sect that helped scare it off?

Or was it afraid of the strength of his dharma?

Although he didn’t understand the situation, it was a good thing to be able to protect these things.

Each of the baby lion tiger beasts could be sold for a sky high price. As for those beast crystals, just the grade 9 lion tiger beast core was worth a huge amount.

As for soul stones, they were directly shattered by his one origin white sword.

Returning to the Merit Hall to hand in the mission. This time the deacon Fuwu had a dark and sunken face.

When Zong Shou took out his small heaven and earth bag and handed in all the obtained materials and beast crystals–pouring them all out in the small building– the deacon’s face was extremely ugly.

“Great great senior master, cheating isn’t right!”

Zong Shou was delighted, he would always hear such words once every day.

“What cheating? Didn’t you all check the things we had on us before we left?”

“But, but…”

Fuwu hesitated, looking at the people in front of him with a doubtful gaze.

In just half a day, there were thousands of grade 6 beast crystals and close to hundred grade 7 and grade 8 crystals ended together.

…Furthermore, there was an extremely pure metal element grade 9 beast crystal!

He knew that Zong Shou’s sword path was exquisite. Even Jueyu was defeated by him. He could be compared to half a grade 9, but it was only half. It was impossible for him to defeat a grade 9 beast.

This was why this great great senior master Zong must have definitely cheated! Only, he couldn’t manage to think of how he cheated.

Zong Shou’s face had sunk down, putting on a face and coldly scoffing. Fuwu was helpless. After carefully calculating, he wrote the numbers beside Zong Shou’s name on a leaderboard, changing it to 2.37 million. The total merit points were close to half more than that of the name behind him.

Zong Shou calmly looked at it. Then, he exclaimed. There was one more name on the list which was actually that of Shui Lingbo’s.

Yesterday, she was nowhere to be seen but today she had already popped up. 150 thousand merit points, just behind Fangwen and Xuexi.

It wasn’t that these 2 people weren’t as strong as him. The former needed to take care of the palace whilst the latter was in deep cultivation–to make up for those 20 years of time where he didn’t focus on cultivating.

That woman also returned back to common people palace?

He was thinking that way in his heart. Fuwu suddenly leaned on his ears and said happily, “Great great senior master! Elder Han has ordered that you can quit this world river cleaning matter. He says there is a more important matter for you…”

Zong Shou was delighted. However, his expression didn’t change, flatly acknowledging. Then, he squinted as he looked towards Fuwu, waiting for him to continue.

It was naturally a joyous matter not needing to clean the world river. However, the important matter after, whether or not he should take up the matter would be up to his mood.

Today, it could be said that he had forcefully completed the mission, doing his duty for the common people path. That old man Hanfang couldn’t command him anymore.

Fuwu didn’t speak about any specifics, just pa.s.sing a jade letter to the front of Zong Shou.

“Elder Han said that if great great senior master accepts, this it would be for the best. If not, then he will find someone else. You can ponder about it, please give a reply within a day.”

Zong Shou was shocked, receiving the jade letter. With just a slight use of spiritual sense, a decent sized information wave charged into his mind.

Scanning carefully, his brows furrowed, “So that is the case!”

Just thinking for a moment, Zong Shou kept that jade letter into his sleeves.

“I, Zong Shou, will accept this matter!”

The matter was simple. It would take 3 days to and fro, and it was also along the way. It didn’t seem like it was a tough matter, it was within his ability.

What was most important was the last sentence which said that after the matter, he could relax for the next 5 years.

Walking out of the Merit Hall, at the corner of his eyes, Zong Shou sharply noticed a red person flash across. He didn’t know where it went.

“That should be your senior master Fairy Lingbo? Am I that scary?”

Zhao Yanran also looked out, her face extremely weird, wanting to laugh but not daring to. She knew that Shui Lingbo’s senses were sharp and remembered people who offended her. He could only muddily reply, “Disciple doesn’t know! Maybe great great senior master has seen it wrongly…”

Zong Shou laughed to himself, but he also felt a little worried. He didn’t dare to offend this explosive Fairy Lingbo. The corner of his lips curled up as he made his way away.

Separating from Zong Yuan, Zhao Yanran and the others, Zong Shou headed straight for the method teaching Pavillion and technique teaching pavillions. During this half a month, whenever he was free, he would run there to use those 3 million merit points to exchange for all the sword techniques and secret techniques that he was interested in.

He didn’t go just for those of high grade. On the contrary, he started to look from grade 2 techniques. Starting from low to high, from shallow to deep.

In the last life what he paid attention to most was the foundations. However, due to him being alone, his foundations were not considered stable.

At this moment, the common people vast habitat books were a giant treasure to Zong Shou.

In the past, he would totally understand one book, comprehending it fully before exchanging for the next.

However, today he just breezed through. Forcefully remembering all the words and pictures and that was that.

In the next 3 days, he did the same thing. Close to a thousand of books that he had never seen in the last life were memorized in his mind.

On the day when Zong Shou used up ÂĽ of the 3.2 million merit points, a spiritual sword and 2 agate stone black boxes were sent together to the 1st Courtyard A.

The sword was called broken Tan, grade 9 spiritual sword. It was something Zong Shou custom made from the sect for 100 thousand merit points. The top-grade artifact blacksmiths in the sect were in charge of crafting it.

The quality was high, 2 grades higher than that fire yin sword. However, since they didn’t have enough time, it was unable to get even higher.

However, if he created a magical treasure grade weapon, he could probably only look at it and not be able to use it.

The entire sword was black and white, looking a little weird. It also had a sword sheath, a total of 2. When he was Tanqiu it would be broken Tan, the sword was blue. If he was Zong Shou then it was the white sword body, the same as the fire yin sword from before.

As for what was within those 2 agate stone boxes, it was a set of needles, a set of flying knives which were what Zong Shou exchanged with merit points.

The former had 365 golden needles which were all grade 6. Alone it wasn’t strong and it didn’t have anything special about it. However, it was tough and fire-resistant, tough to melt.

It could form into a spiritual formation, not only gathering fire and lightning element spiritual energy, but it could also greatly increase the strength.

It was what Zong Shou was going to use to cast lightning blaze thousand flash.

3 days ago, during the battle against the beasts, the grade 3 flying needles he used were all destroyed.

Even the most tough ones were unable to last more than 4 breaths before it was melted. If not, his lightning blaze thousand flashes would last for longer and have much stronger killing strength.

If he used this set of flying needles, it would definitely feel good to use it to kill and burn people.

As for that set of flying knives, it was also called cloud flame. It was the strengthened version of the grade 3 cloud flame flying knives. A total of 64 of them which were all grade 6.

The amount of merit points spent was several times that of the golden needle.

Even that agate stone jade box was also specially made. The moment the flying knife that he nurtured to the extreme was hidden within, it would be able to maintain the peak state for 10 years.

It meant that the number of flying knives he could use could be increased by several times.

That night, he slightly refined the broken Tan sword. On the second day, Zong Shou left common people vast habitat, using the teleportation jade letter to return to Gantian Mountain city.

Renbo was really skilled, managing the city and its direct cities in an orderly manner. Although the cloud continent had many dark currents flowing and the war was imminent, it was still really peaceful within the borders.

Qiuwei, Hu Qianqiu, and the others were experienced in army matters and great generals on the battlefield. The other ten generals during Zong Weiran’s era were also skilled and had great skills.

The 400 thousand expansion of troops was already mostly completed. All the border troops were all equipped with spiritual weapons and spiritual armor–silently getting into positions to prepare for the war.

There were 300 more people in the blood cloud cavalry. Now there were 4 million spiritual arrows that were acc.u.mulated.

Everything was completed in an orderly and secret manner.

However, Zong Shou knew that it wasn’t all good news.

1 message was from Kongqi Sect which was that Qiaohan was unable to convince the sect.

Lingyun Sect and Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect were investigating where Kongqi Sect crafted spiritual artifacts were going to.

Apart from the amount of spiritual artifacts bought by Gantian mountain, they could confirm that Kongqi Sect had been cooperating with Gantian Mountain in these few years.

During these half a month, they were purposely repelling and ostracising Kongqi Sect.

“As expected, this world doesn’t lack smart people…”

Zong Shou laughed in disdain, not bothering at all. He wouldn’t care even if Lingyun Sect found out. The real killers were the blood cloud cavalry.

The wings were already formed. Even if Lingyun Sect found out about their presence, there was nothing they could do. It would only affect the amount of benefits they got from the war.

With Lingyun Sect’s skill, they would retract back their head which had just stretched out. This was not what he wanted.

The 2nd matter was that the situation within Pill Fountain Sect was a bit weird.

Old man Mingdan had not shown himself for a long time. The ones in charge had changed to several elders.

That Li Yuandan seemed to have a little power.

However, no matter how Xuanyuan Tong and he persuade Xuanyuan Yiren, she wasn’t willing to come back.

Zong Shou felt a huge headache. He thought about it for a long time and was still unable to solve the situation. He couldn’t take the initiative to run up right…

However, he needed to be wary about this matter. He at least needed a way to protect Xuanyuan Yiren’s life.
